Enjoy Yourself is the second studio album by Australian recording artist Kylie Minogue, released on 9 October 1989 in the United Kingdom by Pete Waterman Entertainment (PWE), and in Australia on 6 November by Mushroom Records. In the United States, it was released in January 1990 by Geffen Records. Following the success of her self-titled debut album, Minogue reunited with the producers Stock Aitken Waterman, who produced and wrote nine of the album's ten tracks, in London in February 1989. The recording sessions took place there from February until July, coinciding with Minogue filming her first feature film The Delinquents.

Enjoy Yourself is a bubblegum pop, dance-pop, and disco album that mainly discusses romantic relationships. It received mixed reviews from music critics, who criticised its similarity with her debut release. In the United Kingdom, it debuted at number one with pre-sales of over 600,000 copies and became the sixth best-selling album of 1989. The album was certified four times platinum by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI) in January 1990. It also peaked in the top ten in Ireland, Australia and New Zealand. It failed to find an audience in the United States, and Minogue was dropped as an act by Geffen Records.

Four singles were released from the album, including UK chart-toppers "Hand on Your Heart" and "Tears on My Pillow". Two other singles, "Wouldn't Change a Thing" and "Never Too Late" peaked in the top five. All four peaked in the top twenty in Australia and Ireland. The album was promoted further through Minogue's first and second concert tours, Disco in Dream (1989) and the Enjoy Yourself Tour (1990), which traveled to Australia, Britain and Asia. The album was re-issued in the United Kingdom for the first time in 2015, when it returned to the UK Albums Chart.

Background and recording[]

Kylie Ann Minogue first came to public attention in 1986, when she was cast in the popular soap opera Neighbours as Charlene Robinson, a schoolgirl turned garage mechanic.[1] She signed with Mushroom Records in early 1987 and released her self-titled debut studio album in July 1988.[2] Fueled by hit singles like "I Should Be So Lucky", "The Loco-Motion" and "Got to Be Certain", Kylie peaked at number one and was the best-selling album of 1988 in the United Kingdom.[3] In her native Australia, it peaked at number two and was certified four times platinum by the Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA).[4] It has sold over five million copies worldwide.[5] The album helped Minogue launch her career as a pop artist at a time when not many established actors in television chose to make a record.[6]

Minogue relocated to London after filming her final scenes for Neighbours in June and July 1988.[7] In November, she lent her voice to "Especially for You", a duet with her then-boyfriend Jason Donovan, who also played her love interest in Neighbours.[8] Written and produced by Stock Aitken Waterman (SAW), it became the fourth highest-selling single of 1988 and the first number-one single of 1989 in the United Kingdom.[9] In February 1989, she reunited with the producers at PWL Studios 1 & 4 in London.[10] The trio, who had served as producers and writers on Kylie, had Minogue record "Hand on Your Heart" and "Wouldn't Change a Thing", while working on her second album.[11] Pete Waterman, one of the producers, felt that they had a remarkable work ethic during the making of Enjoy Yourself, saying "We aren't nervous about following up the first album at all, we were on a treadmill and loving it".[12] The album was licensed by PWL co-owner David Howell.[12]

Two months later, it was announced that Minogue had accepted the lead part of Lola Lovell in the Australian-based film The Delinquents, directed by Chris Thomson. Trying to establish herself as a serious actress, Minogue believed the role as a rebellious and passionate country girl would differentiate her from her girl-next-door image in Neighbours.[13] Principal photography began in Maryborough, Queensland, in May and lasted about two months.[14] She resumed work on her album in London for three weeks until July.[15] The three-week recording sessions were intense since she was still promoting her debut album.[16] For The Delinquents' soundtrack, Waterman suggested Minogue cover The Teenagers' "I'm Not a Juvenile Delinquent" (1957) or Little Anthony and the Imperials' "Tears on My Pillow" (1958). Minogue picked the latter work, which she had heard it before, and recorded it the next day.[17] She recorded "Never Too Late" during the final sessions in July.[18]

Music and lyrics[]

Stock, Aitken and Waterman wrote and produced the entire album apart from "Tears on My Pillow", which was written by Sylvester Bradford and Al Lewis.[19] Minogue and the producers decided that the album would be more diverse than the previous effort, which was mainly dance music.[20] "There are a lot of different songs... Enjoy Yourself has balance and a sort-of fifties orchestra number... I think it has a wider range of appeal [than Kylie]", Minogue said.[21] The album contains many R&B basslines, which Stock felt shows different aspects of pop music and gives "a slightly more soulful, more American angle, a kind of serious feel".[12] He wrote simple lyrics about romantic relationships to give the songs "extra resonance and profundity".[12]

Music critics have described Enjoy Yourself as a bubblegum pop, synth-pop, dance-pop, and disco album, whose theme revolves around romantic relationships.[22] They also noted the similar composition of the songs to those on Minogue's debut album.[23] In the biography Kylie (2014), Sean Smith notes that it "was little more than an extension of her debut album, an example of not fixing something when it isn't broken."[24] Nick Levine of Digital Spy said that the album sounded "more perky, plasticky Stock Aitken Waterman pop" than the previous effort.[25] Joe Sweeney of PopMatters felt that Minogue was no longer bridging the gap between pop and dance music, but trying to expand from the "still-Astley-rific SAW house sound" by incorporating ballad and doo-wop tracks.[26] Ian Gormely of Exclaim! compared the bubblegum synth-pop sound to the work of American singers Tiffany and Debbie Gibson.[27] Gary James of Entertainment Focus called it a well-merged complication of her debut and the throwback sound of the 50s and 60s.[28]

Songs analysis[]

"Tell Tale Signs" and "My Secret Heart" received comparisons to the work of Paul McCartney

"Hand on Your Heart" is a beat-heavy song that deals with not wanting to believe a relationship is over.[29] It contains a message about honesty and communication in a relationship, in which Minogue insists her lover on trying and not giving it up.[30] The song was inspired by soul singles "That's the Way Love Is" by Ten City (1989) and "This Old Heart of Mine (Is Weak for You)" by The Isley Brothers (1966).[12] "Wouldn't Change a Thing" deals with believing someone even if no one can understand, while "Never Too Late" follows Minogue's philosophy of trying to look at the better side of things.[30] Colin Irwin of Number One felt that both tracks have an easy and mellow pace but still maintain its appeal as dance-pop tracks, and found the yearning lyrics of the latter work similar to the work of Donovan.[31]

The happy and bouncy track "Nothing to Lose" tells a story about a girl who took risks and made up her mind to take a chance to get what she wants.[32] It is followed by "Tell Tale Signs", a jazz-oriented blues and string-laden torch song, in which Minogue realizes the signs of a relationship falling apart.[33] The offbeat baroque pop "My Secret Heart" contains unusual rhythms, key changes, stuttering cello sounds, and jaunty lyricism.[34] Minogue characterized "My Secret Heart" as an innocent and hopeful fantasy song that reminds her of the 1940s romantic Hollywood films.[35] Both "Tell Tale Signs" and "My Secret Heart" were compared to the work of Paul McCartney.[34] Minogue sings "I'm Over Dreaming (Over You)", the seventh track, in a celebratory and joyous way.[31] Its subject matter centers around finding the courage to face the end of a relationship, not being afraid and clinging to the false sense of security.[30]

Colin Irwin of Number One felt that Minogue sounds authentic in her version of "Tears on My Pillow", am innocent ballad that differs from Johnny Nash's 1975 reggae hit of the same name.[31] Levine, on the other hand, called it an "odd retro moment".[25] Minogue found her version "smooth and easy to listen to" and fairly true to the original.[35] The melodic "Heaven and Earth" shows Minogue's view on the environmental issues, and encourages people to conserve and protect the environment.[36] It is followed by the title track, which serves as the album closer.[31] Lyrically, it reminds people to be happy and enjoy themselves.[35] Irwin called the house track "nothing other than a whoop-it-up mind-numbing bash,"[31] while Levine described it as a "party [song] with a Seize The Day message" that predicted Minogue's follow-up effort.[25] Cameron Adams from Herald Sun felt that the song sounds ingenious and easy, and compared it to the work of ABBA.[37]

Artwork and release[]

The album's artwork, shot by photographer Simon Fowler, shows Minogue grinning while wearing a black minidress and a bedazzling golden hat.[38] Minogue was surprised about the final artwork, which she found "quite daring" and "does reveal a bit of flesh".[39] "[The hat] is from London. I'm heavily into sequins at the moment... I don't think I would wear it down the street though," Minogue recalled.[40] Like Kylie, the artwork was meant to show her in a girlie and carefree way that kids and teenagers could relate to, and not as "some icon on a pedestal".[41] Other PWL artists used the same strategy and can be seen posing with hats on the covers of their albums. These include Mandy Smith's Mandy (1988) and Sonia's Everybody Knows (1990).[42] The title, Enjoy Yourself, reflects Minogue's motto of living with a positive attitude in the face of life's difficulties.[43]

Enjoy Yourself was released in the UK on 9 October 1989 by PWL.[44] The album was not released in Australia until 6 November 1989, through Mushroom Records.[45] In Japan, a limited edition was released in November with postcards, stickers and a lyric booklet.[46] The North American edition, released by Geffen Records in 1990, had differing artwork and included "Especially for You" as a bonus track.[47] In 1989, a VHS titled Kylie: The Videos 2 was released in the United Kingdom and Japan by PWL, including an interview with Minogue, as well as music videos for "It's No Secret", "Hand on Your Heart", "Wouldn't Change A Thing", and "Never Too Late".[48] The album was re-released by WEA in Japan in 1993 and 1995,[49] before PWL announced their reissue in 2012 with bonus tracks and mixes.[50] In October 2014, it was announced that Enjoy Yourself was to be re-released by Cherry Red Records and PWL, along with her studio albums Kylie, Rhythm of Love, and Let's Get to It (1991).[51] The release date was later postponed to 9 February 2015.[52] The albums were digitally remastered from the original studio tapes and available on vinyl, CD, and DVD. This was the first time these albums had been released in the United Kingdom since their original release.[53]

During the release week, the album was backed by a £250,000 advertising campaign on television, in teen magazines and music papers.[54] In October 1989, Minogue launched her first concert tour, Disco in Dream, performing several songs from both Kylie and Enjoy Yourself.[55] It began in Japan, where she performed before 38,000 fans at the Tokyo Dome.[56] She later joined other artists from the PWL label on a ten-date theatre tour in the United Kingdom, which attracted 170,000 fans.[57] Its run in the United Kingdom was sponsored by local radio stations and was re-titled The Hitman Roadshow.[58] From February to May 1990, Minogue launched the Enjoy Yourself Tour. She performed three shows in her native Australia in February, grossing $3 million from the sale of 10,000 tickets per-show.[59] The tour was later extended to Europe and South East Asia in April and May.[59] Her performance in Birmingham, the first city of the European leg, attracted 12,700 fans at the Resorts World Arena.[60] Minogue donated thirteen costume pieces worn in both concert tours to the Arts Centre Melbourne—three of them were given in 1991, two in 2008, and the rest were sent to the Cultural Gifts Program in 2004.[61]

Singles[]

"Hand on Your Heart" was released as the first single in April 1989 with "Just Wanna Love You" as the B-side track.[62] A music video, filmed in Melbourne earlier in March, was released featuring Minogue dancing in a studio set.[63] The single received limited promotion as Minogue was busy filming The Delinquents.[64] Nevertheless, the song became her third number one single on the UK Singles Chart, while reaching number four on the Australian Singles Chart.[65] It reached number one in Ireland, and peaked in the top ten in Switzerland and France.[66] The second single "Wouldn't Change a Thing" was released in July, accompanied by Minogue's first music video to be filmed in the UK.[67] It debuted at number two there and reached number six in Australia that September.[68]

The title track was originally planned as the third single but was replaced with "Never Too Late". The decision was made at the last minute before its release on 23 October.[69] The track's B-side was a megamix of her songs from Kylie, titled "Kylie's Smiley Mix".[70] "Never Too Late" became Minogue's fifth number-one single in Ireland and reached number four in the UK.[71] The music video shows Minogue in various costumes: she dresses as a cowgirl, a '70s disco dancer, a Chinese woman with a handheld fan and a 1920s flapper.[72] "Tears on My Pillow" was released as the final single to support both the album and The Delinquents. The single was pushed until January 1990 to meet the film's release schedule.[73] It debuted at number two in the UK on 14 January, Minogue's ninth consecutive top-five single and her fourth to debut at number two.[74] It reached number one the following week, her fourth single to do so.[74] The 12" single was released with the B-side "We Know the Meaning of Love".[75] "Never Too Late" and "Tears on My Pillow" also peaked in the top 20 in Australia and the Netherlands.[76]

Enjoy Yourself received mixed reviews from music critics, many of whom compared it to Minogue's debut album. AllMusic's Chris True awarded the album two-and-a-half stars out of five, saying it was a good follow-up to her debut and the producers "knew what they had and they crafted songs that kept [Minogue] in the public eye."[77] Nick Levine of Digital Spy opined that despite the lack of strong tunes, the album still had more variety than her first one and Minogue was "at her most ingenuous".[25] Colin Irwin of Number One called the album a departure for Minogue, and praised "Tell Tale Signs", "My Secret Heart", and "Tears on My Pillow" for shifting away from other traditional SAW-produced tracks.[31] Echoing the same sentiments, Richard Lowe of Smash Hits praised the diversity of the songs and called it a striking pop album.[82] In a review for the 2015 reissue of Enjoy Yourself, PopMatters' Joe Sweeney deemed it a more ambitious production and felt Minogue's vocals were particularly stronger than before. He felt the result, however, sounded "like a messy document of artistic maturation".[26] Sean Smith described it as an extension of Kylie; the result was just "another Charlene album".[24]

Reactions by American critics were generally unfavourable. The staff of People magazine viewed Enjoy Yourself as an attempt to exploit the success of the debut album in a "particularly lazy, unimaginative way". They felt the producers overpowered Minogue, describing her as "a cog in a gray-noise machine" and that "she project[ed] practically zero personality".[83] In a one-star out of five review, Arion Berger of Rolling Stone dismissed the singer's woeful vocals as well as the "hopelessly retro" tracks. He called the album incompetent and felt Minogue had a long way to go to display any artistic innovation.[81] Billboard's reviewer called the album another "[meringue] from SAW's clockwork sweet shoppe" and panned the computer-generated songs, saying they "won't win any Nobels for deep thought, but young fans will still gobble it up like Baskin-Robbins".[84] Caitlin O'Connor Creevy of Chicago Tribune called it a safe and average album that "eight graders can jam to."[78]

In a review in 2018, Slant Magazine's Sal Cinquemani wrote that Enjoy Yourself repeats "Kylie's sonic template almost verbatim" and criticized "Hand on Your Heart" as the "tonally incongruent lead single". He described it as Minogue's second-worst studio album.[85] While reviewing the album on its 30th anniversary, Quentin Harrison noted a maturity that was missing from Minogue's previous album and highlighted the ballad "Tell Tale Signs" which, "whilst not in the same vocal league of Mariah Carey or Whitney Houston, is most definitely executed very well". He concluded that even though Minogue "was clearly given little opportunity to inject her own vision", she had nonetheless managed to make a pop album that is now recognized as "classic Kylie".[86] In the Encyclopedia of Popular Music (2011), British writer Colin Larkin gave it three out of five stars, as he did Minogue's debut album, classifying it as "recommended" and highly listenable.[79] At the ARIA Music Awards of 1990, Minogue was nominated for Best Female Artist for Enjoy Yourself while receiving the Outstanding Achievement Award.[87] The music video for "Never Too Late" won the award for Most Popular Music Video at the 32nd Logie Awards, her second win in the category; she previously won for "The Loco-Motion" in 1988.[88]

Commercial performance[]

Enjoy Yourself debuted at number one on the UK Albums Chart and remained in the top 10 for sixteen weeks.[89] It was certified double platinum by the British Phonographic Industry two days after its release, powered by pre-sales of over 600,000 copies.[90] It went on to sell over one million copies in the first ten weeks of its release.[91] It was the sixth best-selling album of 1989 in the UK, and was certified four times platinum on 1 January 1990.[92] Enjoy Yourself returned to the UK Albums Chart in 2015, when the reissue peaked at number ninety-four on 15 February.[93] In her native Australia, the album debuted at number fifteen before reaching number nine in the second week.[94] It was certified platinum by the Australian Recording Industry Association in January 1990 for selling over 70,000 copies.[95] It debuted at number sixteen in New Zealand and peaked at number six three weeks later.[96] It was certified gold by the Recorded Music NZ in June 1990.[97]

In Japan, Enjoy Yourself was Minogue's first top-ten entry on the Oricon Albums Chart, peaking at number seven.[98] It was certified gold by Recording Industry Association of Japan in November 1989, her second and last certification there, and had sold 49,000 copies as of 2006.[99] The album also peaked in the top 30 in Finland, France, and Switzerland.[100] In North America, the album failed to find an audience and did not appear on any major charts, leading to Minogue being dropped as an act by Geffen Records. Enjoy Yourself was her last album released there until her eighth studio album, Fever was picked up by Capitol Records in 2002.[101]
